-  * Most beings need to eat. By default, a living, sapient being consumes a number of [[Supplies]] each month equal to their Size minus 2. If their Size is 1 or 2, they consume only 1/2 a unit of Supplies each month. If they're an {{:abilities:animal.png?15&nolink}}[[Animal]], their consumption is halved. +  * Most beings [[gluttony|need to eat]].

   * You can script units to focus on **large monsters** (the game uses the term "monster" in place of units in various places), in which case they'll focus their best efforts on enemies of Size 7 or greater. If there are no enemies of Size 7 or greater, Size 6 enemies will be targeted instead.   * You can script units to focus on **large monsters** (the game uses the term "monster" in place of units in various places), in which case they'll focus their best efforts on enemies of Size 7 or greater.

   * While units can be "hidden" on the strategic map by having larger quantities of other units in the same space, this is significantly tougher to do for units of Size 6 or greater; reports will tend to mention one "towering over the enemy army".   * While units can be "hidden" on the strategic map by having larger quantities of other units in the same space, this is significantly tougher to do for units of Size 6 or greater; reports will tend to mention one "towering over the enemy army".
